Notes
- You can prepare deviled eggs up to one day ahead and keep them refrigerated until serving.
- Store covered in the refrigerator for up to four days; these eggs do not freeze well.

- Ensure yolks are fully hard-boiled for best texture and flavor.
- For a very smooth filling, grate the yolks finely or process all filling ingredients in a food processor before folding in relish.
